How to use Workspaces.

[helios]

A Workspace is "the state of the set of files you are working on at any time". In other words, if you have several files open in TextPad, and then use the Workspace / Save As command from the File menu, then all of these files will exist in the .tws file that is created. Consequently, all of these files will be opened, the next time you start TextPad, as long as the option to "Reload last workspace at startup" is enabled.

The Workspaces are saved, by using the Workspace / Save command from the File menu, or by opening another Workspace, or by exiting from TextPad.

If you only want the last individual file that you were working on to open the next time TextPad is started, then you will need to close all the other open files, before saving as a Workspace.

If a Workspace is empty the next time you open one, then please ensure that you are not using the Close All command to close the files in the Workspace. This will effectively empty the Workspace, so that when you exit from TextPad there is nothing being saved, and consequently nothing in the Workspace the next time you open it. Closing files individually from the Workspace will also have the same effect.
